Czechoslovakia (or Czecho-Slovakia; Czech and Slovak: Československo, Česko-Slovensko) was a sovereign state in Central Europe which existed from October 1918, when it declared its independence from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, until its peaceful dissolution into the Czech Republic and Slovakia on 1 January 1993.

From 1939 to 1945, following its forced division and partial incorporation into Nazi Germany, the state did not de facto exist but its government-in-exile continued to operate. In 1945, the eastern part of Carpathian Ruthenia was taken over by the Soviet Union.

How places in Czechoslovakia are organized

From 1918-1948 Czechoslovakia was divided into lands. From 1949-1960 it was divided into 19 regions, which have not yet been added to WeRelate. From 1960-1992 it was divided into 10 regions, which are listed. After 1992 see Czech Republic or Slovakia.

The standard at WeRelate is to title Czech place pages according to their land when it is known, with also-located-in links to the region.
